Lyrics
Did you see the night sky and the ray lights of sun?
Did you see the mountains and the wild wolves all run?
Did you hear the birds song?
Did you feel the cold wind?

I saw nothing up there i had only a glimpse 
I saw nothing up there i saw nothing but him!

I so much desire to have feet of my own﻿

﻿A rustic plane a fire weaver held the strings of a sensual fever
Hunting wings of a human fellow blackest eyes to tread the meadow
﻿
Oh how i wonder if i was smarter i could have stolen her hid her under water
Oh how i wonder if i was smarter i could have stolen her hid her under water
﻿
Did you touch the darkness when you got lost at sea? 
Did she weep bitter tears that turned the water salty?
Did you fall for her song that let beauty erase your sins?
Did you touch a woman who's skin glittered like fins?
 
Faerie born from a dandelion you've moved on but i just keep crying etheral seeds a breath of spring summer rain beneath my aching feet
﻿
Help me Help me hunter please don't hurt her
Help me Help me hunter she was the one who made the thunder
 
Could he not here you speak or see the longing in your eyes 
Your beating heart is burning for everything you've sacrificed
Could he not understand left you needles and pins in the sand
Is it just like a man to not know love when it's placed in his hands
 
Almond moon of an aztec wound
The clinging roots of lonely neptune 
Selkie tongue of a siren song
Bring me earth and breathing lung
Buried moan of diamond stone 
The broken bones of a teardrop home
Eternal world of imortal souls 
Gaping through my skin like windows
 
Help me help me hunter please don't hurt her
Help me help me hunter she was the one who made the thunder
 
Oh how i wonder if if i was smarter i could have stolen her hid her under water 
Oh how i wonder if if i was smarter i could have stolen her hid her under water
 
Drop by drop your spirit will come back to me 
Drop by drop your spirit will come back to me
The first drop will be heavenly
The first drop will be heavenly

In this project I was interested in researching of composition and connection between social situation analysis and sound-processing. As a base for this structure I chose time interval from Moscow Olympic games in 1980 to present time, calculating time-corresponding grid, where every second of the composition was corresponded to real period of time.

But that was just the beginning, then I started to divide my scheme by Golden Ratio. And there was a discovery – I was surprised to find out that the composition itself found the critical points in this interval history of Russia, such as USSR collapse, Putin's seizure of the government, financial crisis and so on. I continued researching on this and started to gather my sound material using radio and TV archives, doing field-records, trying to connect them to this «time map».

At some point I found that archival sounds of Kremlin bell also contained some correlation with this time stamps in its spectral analysis, so I used it as my composition grid, putting more and more corresponding sounds on it. I used different processing techniques to produce sounds of exact tonality, duration and texture.

You could see my draft scheme for composition in the attachment, therefore I could say this work is pure algorithmic reflection on what has happened, yet it gives a chance to use it to say what would happen next. Voice on 3-15 is voice of first Russian president, who reject his position and put Putin in charge in 2000, this was his last speech on central TV.

Аудио из квадрафонической инсталляции "Звучащие фемины. Телесность".
Четыре женщины-художницы рассказывают о своих опытах телесности. Фрагменты историй смешиваются между собой и звучат новыми смыслами.  Фемины говорят о теле как реализаторе конфликта, о движении в неограниченном пространстве и времени, о значении пауз и о том, почему нельзя закрывать рот.
Аудио состоит из четырех частей, каждая начинается с вопроса к телу.
